This is a list of key recommended websites for the study of Mathematical Physics

1. The Erwin Schrodinger International Institute for Mathematical Physics. ESI was founded with the aim of providing a meeting place for leading experts in mathematical physics and mathematics in the international scientific community, nurturing the development and exchange of ideas.
2. International Association of Mathematical Physics. The IAMP was founded in 1976 in order to promote research in mathematical physics. The Association invites mathematicians and physicists (including students) interested in this goal to become members.
3. Mathworld. This is the web's most extensive mathematical resource, provided as a free service to the world's mathematics and internet communities as part of a commitment to education and educational outreach by Wolfram Research, makers of Mathematica.
4. PrePrint Network. PrePRINT Network is a searchable gateway to preprint servers that deal with scientific and technical disciplines. Such disciplines include the great bulk of physics, materials, and chemistry, as well as portions of biology, environmental sciences and nuclear medicine.

While it is required to use academic sources provided by the Library such as Books and Journals & Databases for your assignments and research, good quality online resources can make an important difference to your work.

In this Online Resources section of our Theoretical Physics guide, we’ve collected together information on

1. The best online resources for Theoretical Physics that will help you do well in your studies and
2. Some advice on how to get the most out of these resources.

Be careful!: Unlike academic resources, general online resources often don’t go through a process to check they are of high quality. So you will need to assess them yourself by following the advice below and reading our Evaluating Information Guide.

When you encounter online information you should ask yourself five Questions:  

1. How recently was the information published / updated? 
2. Is it relevant to your work?
3. Do you trust the author?
4. Is it supported by evidence?
5. For what reason was the information published?

Find out more about Evaluating Information in our Successful Searching Guide.

The Department of  Physics’s website provides up to date information and news for that department.

For students and staff of the department, it also provides access to key information such as

1. The Departmental Handbook
2. Essay Cover Sheets for assignments.
3. Details of Departmental staff and their areas of interest.

When you want to find information that will help you with your academic work, we recommend you start with the MU Library website.
